It just dawned on me that we have no mouse-way of displaying a spread 
view of windows, like super+w. Middle-clicking the Ubuntu button 
currently does nothing. Perhaps it could be used to display the spread 
view? This would sort of correspond to clicking on an already focused 
application with more than one window. Instead of displaying all Firefox 
windows, for instance, it would display all windows in Ubuntu – meaning 
every open window. It may not be entirely obvious, but it does somehow 
make sense, doesn't it? :)

Or what about making the workspace switcher a dual-action button with a 
left click being used to display a spread of windows and right click 
being used to access the workspace switcher?

The point is that I would really like to have a mouse-way of displaying 
a spread view of windows, but I don't think I'd like to add another 
launcher entry just for that.

Just a few thoughts.
